Bai Yun Chapter 70: March at night
The support from both sides did not come, and Sand Ninja still had the upper hand, but the supply became nervous because of the sudden increase of 1,500 people.
The command judges that there will be another battle in a day or two.
The morning after returning to the camp, Duanmu saw many black dots circling in the distance.
Like a tarsal maggot, the ninja eagle is eyeing Konoha's troops again.
After returning to the camp last night, the previous troop formation had been dismantled.
Each unit has had attrition, so the command has decided to reassign troops to each commander.
Although Princess Tsunade is also the deputy commander, she still sits in the rear.
Fortunately, no matter how the configuration is adjusted, Duanmu and the others just follow Minato Joinin.
At about noon, the troops received the supplies, and Minato Joinin led a team of about 500 people out of the camp.
This really startled Duanmu.
Are these 500 people going to fight? There are 4,500 ninjas on the opposite side of Sand Ninja.
Even if the loss in the last battle against Sand Ninja was not small, there must always be 4,000 ninjas.
Later, it immediately proved to be a false alarm.
The troops stopped before they went far, and the squadron leaders began to assign tasks. It turned out that it was not an assault mission.
Minato Jōnin actually brought his troops to set up traps.
The headquarters is also too talented, and even let Minato Jonin supervise the project and be an overseer.
Nothing was said, even Konoha elites like Minato Jonin came to set up traps, and the troops rolled up their sleeves and dug trenches to make traps again.
Duanmu also saw that part of the team wearing masks continued to run into the distance without stopping.
It seems to be the root of Danzo Consultants, who should be gathering intelligence.
The strength of Sand Shinobi makes Konoha extremely serious. Even the work of setting up traps is so important that the roots are dispatched.
Traps are also a more practical means for the defending side, which can effectively kill the enemy's weak ninjas.
After half a day of labor, after dark, the trap circle was finally set up in front of the camp.
Wait until the root team returns, and report something to Minato Jounin.
After that, Minato Jōnin brought 500 people back to the camp.
On the way back to the camp, when he was about to pass a river valley, Captain Miyake gestured to the team behind him to descend.
The crowd followed the captain down to the bottom of the river valley, standing on the water of the river valley, waiting for the captain's new order.
Duanmu stood at the bottom of the valley, and when the river water passed by the foot of Duanmu, it stirred up a circle of ripples.
Looking up from the bottom, some squadrons jumped over the river valley and continued to rush back to the camp. Some squadrons jumped from the river valley and, like Miyake squadron, waited in the dark river valley.
It didn't take long for the river valley to return to calm, and many Konoha ninjas gathered at the bottom of the valley to maintain silence.
Finally, the 500-man trap deployment force was divided into two parts, one of which was about 200 people, and returned to the camp. Another part, about 300 people, waited at the bottom of the valley for Minato Joinin's order.
After that, Minato Jōnin took the lead, and 300 ninjas, led by their respective captains, ran along the bottom of the valley and ran into the distance.
Many ninjas stepped on the surface of the water, and the river was pulled out of the water by the ninjas' shoes, like happy fry, falling back into the water tick by tick. In the silent night, the water droplets play sweet music, echoing repeatedly in the river valley.
Miyake Squadron and Kakashi Squadron are directly under the Minato Jounin, so they follow Minato Jounin closely.
Behind their two squadrons, there is a distinct squad: Nara Shikisa, Yamanaka Kaiichi, and Akido Dingza.
This pig deer butterfly team leads a squadron and follows Minato Joinin.
These three people were later famous figures of Konoha, and they met so early. Nara Shikahisa is known as the genius strategist of Konoha. I don't know what kind of intersection he will have with Duanmu this time.
Duanmu has a stomachache when he sees the pineapple head. For some reason, he always has a bad feeling.
After running at high speed for three hours, the troops stopped and rested on the spot.
The squadron commander instructed his team members not to start fires or make loud noises.
Duanmu observes the surroundings, forming a squadron of every three squads, gathering together so that he can receive orders from his captain at any time.
Some three squadrons will be closer together to form a brigade, which should have its own brigade captain.
Some squadrons go around the city alone.
This should be the organizational form of the Konoha army. The smallest unit of activity on the battlefield is the squad, but orders are issued at the lowest level to the squadron leader.
For some powerful Jōnin, Konoha returned to the position of captain and was able to command three squadrons or more, but this configuration is not fixed, and there will be changes of troops at any time.
The stronger Jōnin will have a standing army directly under it, just like the relationship between Minato Jōnin and Miyake Squadron and Kakashi Squadron.
Captain Miyake quietly said to Duanmu: "Xiao Duanmu, your opinion inspired the headquarters, and the headquarters decided to give your suggestion a try."
Duanmu looked at the surrounding troops and said, "Is it the way the river valley can block the sight of Ninja?"
Miyake smiled and said, "Yes, if this tactic can be effective, Minato Junin will give you a reward for applying for an A-level mission."
"That's great, I just want to know, how much is the reward for A-level tasks?" Duanmu was the first time he came into contact with A-level tasks, and he was most concerned about the rewards for the tasks.
"Uh, poor child who has never seen the world. The reward for A-level tasks is 50,000 taels."
"How much? 50,000 taels? Then I think my astonishing, unparalleled, and ancient thinking is that the reward for one A-level mission is too small, and it is worth at least 3 or 5 A-level missions. ."
"Hehe, don't be greedy. In order to experiment with this idea, we first went to sweep Sand Ninja's intelligence troops at the root, and Minato Jōnin led the team to pretend to set up traps, and finally took advantage of the darkness to hide the whereabouts of the troops." Captain Miyake told the story. Going through the steps of the plan, he said to Duanmu: "You can get a reward when you touch your lips and lips, or Minato Jonin strives for you. You still need a few more rewards, and you are beautiful, what are you doing? Not going to the sky, side by side with the sun?"
"Captain Miyake, how many A-level missions have you performed?"
"Yes, I have more than 90 A-level missions."
"Wow, you're so rich! No, you're so strong!"
Duanmu calculated silently in his heart that Captain Miyake, who has no relatives, no reason, no children and no daughters, is absolutely rich enough to buy a house in Konoha, which is really enviable.
After that, everyone quietly spent the night at the bottom of the river valley, waiting for the dawn. Throughout the night, the squadron took turns to rest and recharge.
Duanmu still condenses a palm-high whirlwind in the palm of his hand, silently deepening his mastery of ninjutsu.
